Olympic Gold Medalist Walter Wallberg to Sit Out Entire Season Amid Injury Problems

Injured moguls star Walter Wallberg, who won Olympic gold in 2022, has decided to sit out the entire upcoming season, he tells DN.

"I have a few things to deal with and discuss with my doctors," Wallberg told TT after the Olympics in Italy ended without a medal in February.

Now the 26-year-old - who has had problems with his back and both knees, among other things - has made up his mind.

If I'm going to make another attempt, I have to get my body back to 100 percent so it doesn't become something half-hearted, Wallberg tells DN.

After talking with my doctors, I have decided to skip next season to really give my body a "reset".

He will therefore miss the World Cup in Austria in March and aims to return for the 2027–28 season.
